something but not as candidate obama, but also candidate romney agreed upon. we are looking at unprecedented cuts and spending on national security. we are looking at the prospects of drawing down from afghanistan one of the questions that i know that we have is whether we are ready for those changes. i suspect that most of us believe that we are not. tom, maybe you can talk about the sequestration of paul ryan told us is going to happen. >> there has been a near certainty so i will talk about the sequestration per se. i really regarded as a symptom and not the disease itself. the disease itself is the erosion to the point of vanishing, almost. the bipartisan political consensus for military strength, as people used to say. that is something that over the course of my career has been a touchstone. something that people could build upon. we can argue about what kind of strength we could have come of these for forces versus those forces. but there was a broad-based bipartisan condition of the american military power was necessary and necessary conditions in a da

washington willing spending more than when president obama got here, even with the sequester. we're only talking about cutting a tenth -- a tenth -- of what the president spent on the stimulus bill. enough. enough. step one in the process of getting to a serious solution is to end the white house denial of historical reality. we're starting to get there slowly but surely. more importantly, though, is the next step -- that's when the president and the democratic allies -- his democratic allies actually come up to the table and negotiate in a serious way without gimmicks and without gales on how best to -- and without games on how best to reduce washington spending. so let's shelf the tax hikes and the endless campaigning. finally i think there's an own n even larger point to be made here. the president has been going on warning of utter chaos if the set offer takes effect -- if the sequester takes effect. while i agree that those cuts could be made in a much smarter way -- and i don't like the fact that they fall disproportionally on defense -- what does it say that we can't cu
